How often should I service my 2000 GMC Savana 1500?
Take care of your GMC Savana 1500 and it'll take care of you. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your Savana 1500. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. It can be overwhelming, but fortunately, there’s a resource that takes the guesswork out of routine Savana 1500 maintenance. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 2000 GMC Savana 1500!
The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by GMC, your vehicle manufacturer. Driving conditions, climate variations, and other variables can affect which scheduled maintenance services you’ll need; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your Savana 1500's life, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 2000 GMC Savana 1500 problems in the future.
Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2000 GMC Savana 1500 for factory-recommended routine maintenance and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your Savana 1500. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.
Maybe it's time to find a new auto battery for your 2000 GMC Savana 1500. If your current battery is more than three years old, it may be time for a replacement (batteries typically last somewhere between three and five years). Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your Savana 1500 may need a replacement battery sooner. Extremely hot or cold temperatures can take a toll on your GMC Savana 1500 battery, and so can frequent short drives. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty Savana 1500) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your GMC Savana 1500 could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.
In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can support your engine’s overall performance and keep your 2000 GMC Savana 1500 running newer, longer. See GMC's recommendations for oil change intervals for your 2000 Savana 1500 in the chart at the top of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 2000 GMC Savana 1500.
Periodic service to the steering system in your GMC Savana 1500 can help you keep control of your vehicle at all times (plus, it can make for a smoother ride!).
